Surface versus deepest layer
In the current profile, Lake Ägeri's surface is 11.7 °C, 6.7 °C warmer than the deepest displayed model layer at 81.00 m (5.0 °C). The profile therefore shows a clear decrease in temperature with depth.
Across 82 calculated depth layers, the modelled temperature ranges from 5.0 °C to 11.7 °C. The full curve shows where the largest transition occurs; surface and deep values alone would not describe that layering.
The depth is the deepest layer returned by the Simstrat model, not a newly surveyed maximum depth of the lake. The profile describes a modelled lake state, not the temperature at a particular bathing site.
